Hi SS,
This thread is the first time Ive seen her name. My comment was more about his No wonder youre this and that reply. Which he has done a few times that Ive noticed in similar threads with people who are showing signs of depression and low self esteem.
She said she has Aspergers. In my experience you can give them all the advice in the world and they will do what they want to do because that is logical in their minds. High in logical thinking and low on emotional thinking.
She received a lot of good advice. But the wiring is different so she will receive it differently. The depressing mood seems common with Aspergers. I dont know how she could make a real friend here, maybe share some details so someone living near her city can reply?
God bless you too SS always lovely to read your posts!
The reason I started replying to her threads to begin with was because I went through several years of feeling the same way as what she has expressed in almost all her threads.
I don't think I have Asperger's, as I've never been diagnosed, so I might not be able to relate to that aspect.
And I understand about it being hard to make friends, especially online. At the time, she had mentioned writing a book and wanting to get it published.
So my specific goal at the time was to try to help her connect with another CC member who had published his own books, so that she might be able to get more information regarding how to go about it.
If you are interested in reading more about the situations and responses people have been trying to share with her for several years on this site, it should be available to look at her thread creation and posting history.
I guess I'm an oddball in that I find people I deeply connect with through writing. Yes, it's like catching lightning 🌩️⚡ in a bottle but I always have the crazy hope that if it's happened to me, it might happen to others as well. 💕
I totally understand that newer members have no way of knowing anything about how long people have been here or what their patterns of responses have been.
And maybe the constant influx of new people and interactions is what they need. Maybe you can get through where others of us could not.
And maybe that's exactly why God has you here. 🥰
Thank you for sharing your insights!
